Description

Explore a significant chapter of Mahayana Buddhism with Remaking Buddhism for Medieval Nepal. In this work, Will Tuladhar-Douglas provides a detailed look at the fifteenth-century renaissance of Buddhism within the Kathmandu Valley. This book establishes the character and causes of this religious reformation, offering a foundation for the historical study of Newar Buddhism as a distinct tradition within the broader scope of Indic Buddhism. By analyzing classical Himalayan languages including Sanskrit, Newari, Tibetan, and Nepali, the author presents a new thesis regarding how the Newar people legitimated and reinvented their tradition. This text is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the historical development of Buddhist practices and the social transformations that occurred in medieval Nepal. It offers a deep look into how religious identities were shaped through new conceptions and textual studies.
